Patent number: 9662041Abstract: An area of a patient can be mapped with a system operable to identify a plurality of locations and save a plurality of locations of a mapping instrument. The mapping instrument can include one or more electrodes that can sense a voltage that can be correlated to a three dimensional location of the electrode at the time of the sensing or measurement. Therefore, a map of an area or volume can be determined based upon the sensing of the plurality of points without the use of an imaging device. An implantable medical device can then be navigated relative to the mapping data.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2013Date of Patent: May 30, 2017Assignee: Medtronic, Inc.Inventors: H. Toby Markowitz, Karl Evan Nowak, Mustafa Karamanoglu, Pooja Mehta, Ioana Fleming, David Scanlon, Michael Kryger, Sean T. Massa, Chad Giese, Victoria Interrante, Phillip Falkner

Patent number: 8702604Abstract: A medical device system including a physiological sensor is configured to perform a method for detecting signal artifact in a signal waveform acquired by the sensor. A signal waveform is sensed in a patient using the physiological sensor and a fiducial point associated with the sensed waveform is identified. A point value is established using the fiducial point. Signal artifact is detected in response to the established point value and an established threshold, and at least a portion of the signal waveform is rejected in response to detecting signal artifact.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2011Date of Patent: April 22, 2014Assignee: Medtronic, Inc.Inventors: Mustafa Karamanoglu, Karen J.
